Love & Lust


When you're young (after the hormones hit, that is), as Ye Executive Director is fond of telling his students, polls indicate that you think about sex approximately 90% of the time. Blessedly, as you earn the calm and self-control that comes with adulthood, this falls away -- down to maybe 80%, according to statistics. So, if you're sitting there fantasizing, you naughty little devil, wander through the Café's own Love & Lust menu, featuring Heat: An Erotic Anthology , David Steinberg's Erotic by Nature, and Plunce: Don Riemer's Libidinous Weblog. Then take a gander at these external sites.
  • Clean Sheets
    One of our favorite online erotica 'zines, Clean Sheets, includes art, poetry, fiction (some of it serialized), and even audio files of authors reading their own works.

  • Libido
    Libido: The Journal of Sex and Sensibility has become another of our favorites. A deep archive of fiction from past issues, plus essays and more.

  • Nerve.com
    Then, of course, there's Nerve.com: fiction, essays, horoscopes, personals -- one-stop shopping for your basic online libidinal needs.

  • Collarme.com
    Speaking of which: Is your sexuality other than what some call "vanilla"? Or just looking for online dating sites where real people acknowledge that they have sexual appetites and even specify what they like to do in bed (and in the living room, the garden, public spaces, on rooftops, and elsewhere)? We have four recommendations for you: Collarme.com; Bondage.com; Alt.com; and Adultfriendfinder.com. All allow a certain degree of browsing. All offer free registration. Collarme.com is entirely free; the last three have different levels of registration, allowing different degrees of access to profiles, site content, and other members. The first three are for the BDSM community (and newcomers thereto); the last is more broadly for people of all persuasions looking to hook up, and making no bones about it.
