Coming to gay sex after decades of hetero sexuality it took me quite some time to know what I desired in bed with a man. A pleasant journey of...
What a great thread. Like some here I only acted on my desire to be sexual with men later in life—around 50–but was aware of the desire probably...
You are most welcome, Old Tacoma. I've been away from EC for a bit. Wrestling with late in life transitions these days. I expect I have been...
