While confined to our home with little to do, I turned on my favorite cable channel to get caught up on the news. Of course everything was about coronavirus and all of the pundits were flapping their lips without any idea if the clap-trap that they were espousing was true and/or accurate. When Dr. Oz appeared- someone who I typically mute- I decided to hear what he had on his mind.
He was spewing his usual inane bullshit and I was just about to turn him off when I heard him say that one thing that might be fun during this time of stress and sheltering-in-place would be to have sex. I'm paraphrasing but I'm sure he said something like sex is fun, is healthy, it can take up to an hour or more of your day; and, it's a definite mood elevator. After all these years this man finally said something of value.
Pervert that I am, I decided to think about the suggestion made by the good doctor. It didn't take too long to come up with the idea to have mutual, consensual sex using modern technology since, at the moment, we can't leave the house except for essential services: food, pharmacy items, etc.
So, I approached the most conservative, moral, shy, asexual person I know—my wife of more, or less, a hundred years (I exaggerate, but we have been together a very long time).
"I have an idea about how we can pass the time and have fun with strangers that we'll never see or speak with again. Can I bounce my idea off you?"
"I have no doubt by the look on your face, your smile and the twinkle in your eyes that it somehow involves sex, am I right?"
"I can't get around it. So here it is, how about we start an Internet sex game, by invitation only, to pass the time? We can have as many interactions each day as we'd like, assuming that you'd participate with me, any interest"
"OK, what are you thinking?"
"How about posting an ad on the Internet that says that we would like to invite 3 couples to participate in an on-line sex event. The selected couples can choose to perform a sex act in front of the others participating in the game and then each of the other couples would do their thing for the group. Ideas would include but not be limited to cunnilingus, fellatio, missionary, anal, doggy, mutual or single masturbation, etc. whatever the couple would like to do. The exceptions would be bondage or any physical act that may hurt or injure one or more of the participants. This will be strictly for fun for all of the participants. There would be no cost to play."
My wife wanted to include a couple of other non-starters to the list like stripping, pole dancing and the like but, since this was my idea, I immediately rejected her suggestion! I mean, after all, who would want to spend time watching someone strip—this ain't a 1950s burlesque show!
After some haggling about next steps, I placed the ad on social media (that requested a photo of the couple) and sat back to see if there would be any interest. Holy shit, my inbox was inundated by responses from almost every continent, including all 50 states within the hour. Who knew that there were as many sex fiends as I sitting at home during this challenging time dealing with trying to find options to boredom until the pandemic ends? To say that I was delighted would be an understatement.
I insisted that my wife come to my computer to see what was happening. The first thing she said was, "now what"? I immediately sent an acknowledgement to all respondents that I received their information and photo and that the first 3 selected would hear back within a week. The others may never hear back—I mean, who could answer all of these emails?
