“Straight guys do not go to Club Baths,” I said. “Who would? No one would. I mean, guys with wives and children, guys who say they’re straight go to Club Baths. Guys who are lying to themselves about being straight. I thought we might be lying to ourselves about being straight. I mean, if you saw this in a book, you wouldn’t believe it. You wouldn’t believe the big asshole just wanted to make a point. You wouldn’t believe he just wanted to see what it was like. No way; you’d know that he really just wanted to get fucked. He was a closet case who couldn’t admit it, so he pretended he was going for another reason. Like guys who go to strip clubs for the sociology, or look at stroke mags for the articles. No one could have thought we were straight. We were holding hands, for cocksucking Christ’s sake, and then we weren’t holding hands. We were available. I mean, fuck.”

Bernard summed it up: “We are such losers, we couldn’t pass for gay at Club Baths.”

When we left Clown Alley with our burgers, we were tired and had gotten pretty silly. We were laughing our asses off about not being able to pass as gay. We were speculating on what gave us away. We talked about my walk and Bernard’s nose. We talked about our bodies. Bernard got to
really
laughing. He got to choking-on-his-hamburger and close-to-puking laughing. He was dying. He was laughing so hard, he couldn’t stand up. He put his arm around my shoulders and neck to
steady himself. I was laughing so hard, I couldn’t help much. I put my arms around him. We needed to hold each other up. Just then, a car full of young men pulled out of the Clown Alley parking lot, rolled down a window, threw a beer can at us, and yelled, “Faggots!”

Scuba Fucking

I
wanted to be published in
Reader’s Digest
and
Penthouse
since I first jerked off to each of them (
Penthouse
, with all those letters, and
Reader’s Digest
, with “I Am Jane’s Breast” and “I Am Joe’s Man-gland”). It would have been cool if
RD
and
PH
printed the same article, but that’s too much to hope for. I didn’t want them to hire me or do a Penn & Teller story (I think they both did that anyway). I wanted to do it for real. I wanted to submit something like a citizen. Some “Humor in Uniform” for
Reader’s Digest
and some jack-off story for
Penthouse
. I’ve never been in uniform, but I have jacked off, so I sent something to
Penthouse
. I’ve told people that my letter got printed in
Penthouse
, but I don’t think I’ve ever really seen it in print and I can’t find it online; however, I found my letter on my computer. I remembered it having the line “I was in San Francisco working in a comedy/magic duo, I’ll call it Penn & Teller,” but as it turns out, that’s not in there.

I wrote this (and did the fucking underwater) way back in the days before
Bullshit!,
so I still thought I had to be a little careful about image. Since I’ve had my cock out on
Penn & Teller: Bullshit!
and written about going to a gay bathhouse, this seems pretty tame, but it’s still fun. I sure
hope someone somewhere can masturbate to this. (If you can, let me know, because it would really be a dream come true. And if you’re in uniform when you rub one out, maybe we can sell that to
Reader’s Digest
together.) What follows is what I sent them.

And yes, it’s a true story.

Dear
Penthouse,

This is a true story. I wrote it up for some guys on my computer BBS and they suggested I send it to you. Now, I may have been born yesterday, but I stayed up all night. I’m aware that the letters in your magazine are not entirely written by real people but rather by you, the fake person reading this letter. But I didn’t know that when I first started using
Forum
to jerk off, and it’s been a dream for some time to write a
Penthouse
letter, so I figured I’d send it on. I know it’s really long but this is the way it happened. If you want to use it, you edit it.

I’ve asked Alex about using his name and he says fine, and he’s a public figure in San Francisco, so I think it’s way funny to say, “I’ll call him Alex Bennett.” I DO NOT want to use my name because it might confuse the little Penn & Teller image we have, but those who heard me on the air in SF will recognize the story anyway and get a good laugh.

If you can use it, great. If you can’t, thanks again for all the great jerking off you’ve given me.

Every Inch of My Love,

Letter to
Penthouse Forum:

Dear Penthouse,

I never thought I’d write a letter to Penthouse, but I finally had an experience that I think might interest your readers.

I was a guest on a morning talk/comedy radio show in San Francisco. The host of the show—I’ll call him Alex Bennett—is a good friend, and I’m on the show often. We were discussing a vacation I was planning with a girlfriend to the Caribbean. We were planning a trip to a small island near the equator to do lots of scuba diving. Because discussions of scuba don’t hold people’s attention during “drive time,” Alex asked if my date and I were going to be able to have sex underwater. I said, with a great deal of bravado, that it was a done deal, of course we would have sex underwater.

Alex asked me to put my money where my mouth was and bet me, on the air, $100 that I could not have an orgasm under forty feet of seawater. He had thrown down the gauntlet, and I took the bet. When he found out that my “dive buddy” was to be a model he had seen on TV, he began to worry, but in the end felt secure that the pressure (of winning the bet, rather than the pressure of forty feet of water) would stop me from spurting in Davy Jones’s locker.

I am not a very experienced diver, but I have access to some real pros who were more than happy to give me advice. They assured me that Alex had taken a “sucker bet.” I would win. The only problem, they said, was keeping the pussy moist enough to fuck. The salt of the sea “dries up” the mucous membranes and it can be a really gritty fuck if you don’t plan ahead. The divers I talked to had experimented with many lubricants (one even claimed to have done it with the silicone used for ship motor lubrication) and they concluded that coconut oil was the way to go. Their other piece of advice was to apply the oil on shore, topside. “Get her wet on the inside before she’s wet on the outside” seemed to be the aphorism.

I planned all this with my “dive buddy,” and she felt confident that the $100 was as good as in the bank. She has a professional model™–
quality
body and face. She’s five feet ten with firm medium-size tits, a perfect ass, and a face that, alone, can get anyone’s dick hard. This woman can make a dead man cum. She was ready.

We arrived on the island and took a few dives to get into the swim of it. It was the best diving I’ve ever seen, and because the hotel is just for divers, air tanks were always available and anyone was welcome to dive the reef off the wharf at any time.

When the day arrived, we decided I would wear boxer shorts and she would wear a tiny string bikini. My dick would come right out the fly, and the fabric of her bathing suit would only have to slide to one side to make her completely accessible. We started preparing in our room. She sucked my cock for a while, greased my hard cock up with coconut oil, and carefully put my cock back in my boxers. I ate her cunt, and even though the coconut oil seemed redundant in her dripping pussy, I applied it liberally with my fingers. We were pretty greasy.

We went down to the dock and got all our equipment. Scuba is a very proppy sport, and it was hard to do all the buckles and read all the gauges when we still felt in the middle of fucking and a little glazed. It was a bit scary. We swam out to the side of the reef, went down until our depth gauges read about fifty feet, and found a place to stand. We were told by other divers that it was much cooler if you were just floating, but we wanted to get our bearings to start. She had undone her top while swimming down and as she stood on the reef with the vest straps flanking her naked tits, she was ready.

I took the regulator out of my mouth, held my breath, and sucked on her tits. She has big nipples anyway, and the cold of the water and the blue tint of the filtered light made them look amazing. I sucked on her nipple hard until I needed air, took a breath off the regulator, and went back to sucking. After repeating that process a few times on each breast, I pulled her bikini bottom aside, licked her clit, and exhaled, tickling her cunt with the air bubbles. She pulled my head up; we both took our regulators out and kissed really hard and salty. She climbed down my body and pulled my dick out of my boxers. The magnification
of the water does wonders for one’s ego, and the blue tint of the water gave my hard-on a really pleasant purple hue. She did a remarkable job of breath control, sucking my cock between breaths and blowing air bubbles against my balls.

During all this we went away from the reef to be “weightless.” It was really difficult to keep the buoyancy and depth constant with the two of us, with no reference points and our minds wandering away from gauges and toward fucking. There were lots of fish around, and I was keeping an eye on my dick (this is not a joke, yellowtails are used to being fed underwater and they will bite).

She likes sex fairly rough, so I took my regulator out of my mouth again and bit her nipple hard. I heard her scream with pleasure through her regulator, and this may have been the best part of the whole experience. We were really excited at this point, breathing hard and going through our air like crazy.

It was time to fuck. I don’t think we needed the oil, my cock went in easy, and the “weightlessness” was really trippy. This woman always enjoys sex, and as we fucked underwater she completely forgot where she was and began screaming, sending us up and down, which scared me a little (it’s very dangerous to change pressure too fast, you can get little bubbles in your brain that kill you). We fucked really hard; I was able to spin us around and upside down and get my finger up in her asshole. She came a couple of times, and even through the water I heard her screaming out of the regulator. It was really an out-of-the-world fuck.

Now (here’s the important part for the bet), while I had my dick in her cunt I felt that kind of half-cum thing (where you feel an orgasm and you want to take a little break but you know you’re going to cum again in a little while and really spurt) inside her. My dick was jumping around in her cunt and I was making those white-boy-James-Brown sounds and stuff. After that I pulled out of her, grabbed my dick, and started jerking off while she played with my balls.

We’d been there a while and ALL these fish were around (yellowtails, parrot, and trumpet fish—I don’t think they were watching us, I think they thought this might be our way of getting food for them), and we had gone from forty feet to seventy feet and back again a couple times. She took her regulator out of her mouth and tried to make me cum in her mouth, but I knew that timing was going to be way too complicated. I jerked for a while, looking at fish and her hard cold nipples, and then I looked at my air supply. We’d only been down eighteen minutes, but I was way below 1,500 pounds. That means I was using air more than twice as fast as normal.

We headed back, skipping our decompression “safety stop” (which we could have really needed), and went back home. My “dive buddy” was freezing from diving without her wet suit. When we got into bed we fucked for a long time and I came hard. When we finished this shore fuck session, she was elated because we had won the bet and I was bummed because we’d lost. She said she felt me cum inside her. I said that I felt that Alex wanted a spurt, he wanted a “money shot.” Now, on this trip we were averaging three fucking sessions a day, and even though we always had fun, sometimes I just didn’t “have that much jam.” It would feel like I was cumming but nothing would squirt out. This is what had happened underwater.

We tried one more underwater fuck, but right after I put it in we started floating up—I’d hit the wrong button on my buoyancy control vest and we went up almost twenty feet fast. This is very dangerous and it freaked us enough that that was the end of that session. These were the only two fuck sessions that we planned. We couldn’t do it spontaneously, because my “buddy” really needed a wet suit to dive without freezing and we couldn’t fuck with her in a wet suit. Also, she might have been wet enough without the oil, but we weren’t sure and she wasn’t comfortable greasing up in front of the other divers on the boat.

I really didn’t know if I won or lost. I felt Alex wanted a “money shot” underwater, with fish gobbling up my sperm like so many
yellow-tailed biker chicks, but maybe just orgasm was fine. I’m sure I could have given a good spurt if we laid off sex for twenty-four hours beforehand, but fuck that shit, it was only a hundred bucks and some pride, for Christ’s sake. I talked to Alex, and we decided we would call it a tie. I didn’t make a penny, and I didn’t pay anything. But all things considered, I won.
