Having not been pregnant, I'd probably have a hard time writing that one.

I started to say the same thing about a "wedding night", because my current husband and I got married after 10 years together (and will be married 10 years this year) because we would save on taxes. I'm not even sure we had sex.

But my first husband - we'd been living together/sleeping together for six months, and once he proposed to me, and I accepted, he refused to have sex until we got married. Fortunately, the wedding was only 3 months after the proposal. So that would work. (lol - He also asked my dad for "permission" which was pretty cute. My father tried really hard not to laugh. I was 21, a vocalist in a hard rock band traveling throughout the PNW at the time, I hadn't lived at home for three years, and my Dad really wasn't worried about my chastity/virginity/reputation at that point.)

I'm saving my vote as a tie-breaker, maybe ;)

First time? That sucked. Wedding night? Tired as hell. Pregnant? Depends on how pregnant-can be a real trick to accomplishing that and acting like you enjoy it at the same time.

First time after a divorce? I've been married 30 years, but I think my brain could handle the exercise of imagining that! Now we're talking FANTASY :)

Tom,

Just tried to beat the writer who wanted to write under 18 to the punch. There are rules for our board.


Oh, I know. Still, just saying, lots of people lose their virginities in their twenties. Twenty one here, still going.

EDIT: Just so we're clear, I wasn't trying to start an argument, but simply saying why a story with 18+ old virgins is fairly realistic.

Virgin : Wasn't a great time, more...Okay, when is this going to be fun?

Wedding Night : Sucked horribly. I had to beg to get any...and still go denied. Made up for it the next day however.

After divorce : I think the 'one last time' sex was hotter than the first time after divorce.

Pregnant : Never been pregnant...apologies. ;)

I may write one though, maybe see what happens...

You are often looking for ideas, so why not just do them all in order?

Ooh, with some of the sets of choices I would say that, but not this one. I wouldn't write about losing virginity or pregnant sex. Sometimes it's hard to choose one - this one I'm saving my vote to vote *against* one of those if necessary. lol.

(On the other hand, I only seem to be hitting about every other practice, so...*shrug*)

Both are supposedly extremely hot, but involve two completely different emotions.

Besides. Hate sex is SO much better. :D

Well folks, it's a tie. You may choose your topic, wedding night or first after a divorce.
