These are drawings from one of my earliest surviving erotic sketch books. The sketchbook in question was filled in 1978/1979, when I was in my second year of college. These drawings were executed while I was still a virgin, before I had tactilely experienced another man’s body (especially, the bodies of the father figures that were my primary erotic obsession). Lacking first hand experience, I assumed men in their late 40’s, 50’s and early 60’s would have the bodies of men in their 20’s and 30s.
Later, when I started actually getting laid, I discovered this was inaccurate, but it didn’t dissuade me from my preference. Instead I became a connoisseur of drooping flesh, distended abdomens and penises that couldn’t get reliably erect.
To be honest, I find these drawings, done in my late teens, somewhat embarrassing. But Robert Crumb (one of my heroes) has posted his early artwork, so I figure I should as well.
