Actually, it’s not true that I had no access to real flesh and bone guys during this period. I had just gotten laid for the first time in October of ’81, a couple months after my 21st Bday. In fact, my first b.friend, Denys, was on the hiking trip, in the mountains of Alaska, where I frostbit my feet, causing me to be laid up for 2 months, giving me plenty of time to do these laborious, detailed drawings. Unfortunately, I was laid up at my parents house and didn’t have any privacy to make it with Denys during the recovery period.
This seems to be the same guy from “Artist & Model”. If you saw his backside, there would be a ponytail.
Denys, by the way, went through the same trauma I did, but escaped without any frostbite damage. Go figure.

Very nice. You were already quite talented. And had quite good taste in your fantasies.
Also, you were lucky to have a boy friend at 21. I had to wait until I was 23 just to get laid.
In one sense, I was lucky. On the other hand, I've often said I feel that I was a victim of childhood sexual abuse: I didn't get laid until 2 months after my 21st birthday. I have to disabuse people of the idea that I'm kidding.
