One thing I discovered as a young man plunging into gay culture in NYC is that very few things were off the table sexually, at least as far as fantasy went.

That was kind of wild for me as a repressed Midwest boy. But I soon came to take a certain sexual liberty for granted. I guess I still do in the rather more infrequent affairs I indulge in as an older adult.

I guess I never really thought about how men take sexual liberty for granted while women might be much less inclined to do that.

Thanks for pointing it out, and I hope writing about it helps. We all deserve healthy and fulfilling sexual lives.
