![]() You can get it together in the bedroom if the relationship is amazing. What I’ve learned in my current relationship is that joy is about you spend the rest of the time together. I mean, once you’ve discovered your own sexual patterns and desires. The other 98% is the harder part to get right. It’s, at most, 2% of our time in a relationship. When the sex shuts down in a previously hot relationship, the end is probably approaching. Learning How Sex Fits Into Any Relationship I’ve learned a bit more about relationships and sex in the real world, and it’s nothing like Penthouse Forum. My aspirations for a menage a Trois remain unfulfilled, but that’s okay. And while they didn’t do many 2-on-1 guy photoshoots, the lesbians were always of the lipstick and lingerie variety. Maybe not, but Penthouse Forum continued to tease out the fantasy. And if I was lucky, maybe two girls at once, during Spring Break in Miami Beach. I was going to make some High School girl very happy. Well, until it became weaponized, but that wouldn’t happen for years.īut the truth is, from that box of Playboys and Penthouses I studied sex with vigor and intention. For years, after the discovery, my brother would say, “He’s already more educated than I am. This might have been the reason I purchased Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex, But Were Afraid To Ask when I was 12. The more you knew the better it could be. Most of us tried to leverage our visual and mental images into our real lives with real partners. Our initial encounters with potential partners were well-fueled by hormones and adrenaline. Sometimes the words could evoke a more personalized response. ![]() But, most of our education came in the form of pictorals and fantastic (or not so fantastic) words. As we get a bit older, we begin the long learning curve of courtship and (if we’re lucky, or talented) sex with another person. We learn what images and ideas get us off. Most of us learn about sex by self-exploration. I mean, I made my way though ALL OF THE MAGAZINES, but Penthouse was more my *taste.* How Do We Learn About Sex? Playboy was a BIG BOOBS + BIG BUTT fantasy that didn’t really connect with me as much. The thing about Penthouse was their photographers focused much more closely on the uncovered genitals. But 30+ years ago porn meant these three or four magazines and the dueling sexual revolution champions of Heffner and Guccione. I may have even submitted a few fantasy “letters” of my own.īy today’s standards, with free porn and free erotica, Penthouse Forum is a bit mild. I am sure that I wrote a few whoppers to tell my friends. I’ve never achieved that specific forum story, but I’ve had some wild-I-can’t-believe-we’re-actually-doing-this events. ![]() I can tell you my first reaction to a lesbian spread was very positive. Two girls, one guy, that was the ultimate quest. I never thought anything like this would ever happen to me, but… we found ourselves naked and in the swimming pool of her best friend’s parent’s house…” And Penthouse Forum was the place for sexy stories that always began something like this: My mind was now *experienced* and hungry for additional clues to the mysteries of sex. But after the page-turning and massage sessions, I wanted MORE. ![]() Penthouse Forum Lettersĭid the *words* hold more imaginative data than the photo spreads? Probably not. I don’t recall much about the specifics of that afternoon, but it was an awakening that still encourages my curiosity to this day. There were also a few Penthouse Magazines at the bottom of the moving box full of magazines that we hauled two miles back to my house, sharing the carry along the way, full erections leading us back to unlimited discovery. Now, to be fair, Playboy was not really my favorite. So, I was probably an accidental treasure chest. But it was not uncommon to be sent on an errand to retrieve some tool. What I was doing poking around in my uncle’s storage shed, I don’t remember. He was 10 years older than me and my friend, who were in 7th grade at the time of the discovery. My oldest cousin had left behind a large box of Playboy magazines in one of their family’s outdoor storage buildings.
