Entry Level: Gay First Time Stories Volume 23

By Cody Croquet

The summer after my freshman year at Penn I got an internship at a finance firm in the city, and they stuck me in a two-bedroom with some guy named Decker from another school who I'd met once at a networking thing. Within a couple days we were pretty comfortable around each other, and a week in, we were learning that "a hand is a hand, no homo", and honestly I couldn't come up with a reason in the moment how he was wrong. That started the closest relationship of my life.

Gay First Time Stories is a multi-volume collection of modern, coming-of-age stories about guys figuring out the joys of male bonding one moment at a time. Each story focuses on spicy awkwardness, unexpected feelings, and those moments when a normal day with a friend suddenly shifts into two hormonal males realizing there is more fun they could be having together.

The stories unfold in bedrooms, dorm halls, locker rooms, team houses, showers, and sleepovers where not much sleeping happens. Some of the guys think they are straight, some are quietly curious, and most land somewhere in between. Curiosity grows when they notice a friend, teammate, neighbor, or even a guy living in their house has something more to offer than friendship. Sometimes teasing or gay chicken goes a little too far, and a harmless experiment becomes a life-changing moment.
