This is part 2 of 2. Part 1 is my recreation of a Penthouse Forum story from the early 1990s that has been on my mind ever since. Part 2 is the same situation from the other main character's perspective as I've contrived it. Sorry it took so long, but I had a lot of pieces of this to weave together and that was harder than expected. Making the two characters' recollections a bit different was my best idea of how to make that work - I hope it's not too distracting.

Sometimes my boyfriend can be so frustrating. Good thing he's sexy and as interested in sexy fun as I am. We met just before finishing undergrad and have been together for almost three years, with me starting grad school last year to study psychology after doing some entry level corporate work I found soul-crushing. He's a consultant for a small firm downtown, walking distance from our apartment and the University. He spends a lot of his free time at the gym, which has appearance benefits for me, but adds to the frustrating behaviors because his "gym bros" all seem to be wrapped up in misogynistic views of women. [[ and the whole silly "alpha" and "beta" male hierarchy, which rubs off on him. The aggravation is compounded, because I study animal behavior, and the whole idea of alpha wolves/dogs was suggested by a Swiss researcher in the 1940s and repopularized in the 1970s, but both researchers retracted their findings, admitting they were wrong.
I thought I had pretty standard attitudes about sex until college, when I realized I was more open minded and interested in sexual experiences than most women. I had less sex that I would have liked, in part to avoid getting a reputation as a "slut", but managed to explore some activities that the prudes wouldn't have approved of.
Most recently, boyfriend and I visited what was advertised as a "clothing-optional" island resort that turned out to be a swingers' and kinksters' destination (at least the week we were there). Boyfriend was a scholarship wrestler and seemed to enjoy showing off his body in tight singlets and going shirtless since I knew him. He also enjoyed intimidating the average, nonathletic men on campus. I'm pretty sure that side of him was in response to being bullied for being one of the shorter kids in school, and hitting puberty later than most. But at the resort, we were young and attractive enough to earn a lot of attention - too much for me to be nude other than beach- and pool-side, but he ate it up and wore the minimum required in every setting, flirting with women of all ages. It also doesn't hurt his self-image that his penis is larger than average, looking outsize for his height and narrow waist. So we were invited to all kind of gatherings, activities and parties at the resort. I wasn't a prude prior to that - but we saw so many sexy, kinky things (and participated in a few) that excited me, I felt I'd been living in a nunnery before. The BDSM group we met was my favorite - especially the dominatrix who lead a couple sessions. I developed a bit of an instant crush on her, maybe helped by drinks and party drugs, and I tried to volunteer to be her demonstration subject few times without success. As a result of my crush, we attended everything the BDSM group did that week, and boyfriend seemed to enjoy topping me in practice session, certainly more than I liked submitting. I only managed to cum from some of the teasing and predicaments by focusing on the dominatrix instead of him. On the last day, I confessed my crush to the domme at the farewell event, where all the groups came together in revealing, but almost street-appropriate attire. I also shared my disappointment at not getting to submit to her despite volunteering. She listened, with a sexy, knowing smile, and when I made my confession, she said only "you're no sub, you see yourself when you look at me." It seemed like an enormous compliment, and while blushing deeply, I felt like I'd received a spiritual revelation, and was so physically aroused that my tiny thong was uncomfortably soaked before I walked away.
Back at home, we tried to recreate some of the BDSM energy we'd enjoyed at the resort, but both boyfriend and I were happy and satisfied as the dominant one. We resolved to try to explore more threesome and moresome activities, but found the online matching sites to be lacking young and attractive candidates, so we hadn't actually got together with anyone else.
One evening, boyfriend was talking about his visit to the gym earlier, and as he frequently does, was running down a new gym goer as a "beta" who would likely never make much physique progress, and probably never satisfy his woman, and I'd had enough. I said "for all you know, he's great in bed and has a bigger dick than you to boot." He laughed, and said, "I guarantee you neither is true." And I shot back "there are studies that say you're wrong. He replied "all I know is that there are two kinds of guys, straight ones, anyways, and you can pretty much tell the difference just looking at them. The alphas are self-confident, have muscular builds, even if they're fatter or thinner, and are well hung. Betas are soft, submissive and have small junk, balls especially, because it's all about testosterone, and that comes from balls."
