Love in Bed
erotic tales by

On "optimism" in Love and Sex ...
Is intense carnal sex beautiful? Could they also be in love?
Many literary novelists say love must feature cold beds, passive-aggressive tricks, drift, cheating, and sophisticated boredom. "Love is too plebian."
Popular romance, on the other hand, can be timid about sex and often ends with a predictable happy ending or a boating disaster or fatal cancer from nowhere.
I find these approaches dull. Sex + Love is too much fun.
What about great erotic love, written with realism of the human condition, yet absent the despairing elements? Love should win, sometimes, and they should be red-hot in bed!
I dispute the many voices saying "... sexual loving is not like that. It's a dark battlefield." If that were true, humans would disappear, instead of enduring for six million years.
