...it really worked for me...
Come on, my girl, he thought, come for daddy.
...and sometimes it didn't. Still, even when it wasn't working for me it never stopped me from reading, and like I said, this was still a really hot chapter.
Actually, just what the hell is pre-cum, and what the hell is its purpose? He hadn't really thought about it before.
*Also Sprach Zarathustra begins playing* There comes a time in everyone's life, a time when the stars align and the heavens open, a time when their knowledge is finally called upon. At long last, my Biology degree has paid off, because I KNOW THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION!
So, for the curious, sperm cells are very sensitive to acidity. This is sort of a problem, since semen has to pass through the urethra...which is also where urine, containing uric acid, is expelled from the body. Therefore, in order to protect the sperm cells, two small organs called the Cowper's glands produce a clear fluid (pre-ejaculate or pre-cum) that is flushed through the urethra before ejaculation in order to neutralize any lingering acidity.
I realize that was the least sexy description of anything sex-related ever, and you have my apologies for that.
Thanks again for your review!
Right off the bat, I’d like to point out that if the daddy part bothered you then we wonder how worthwhile it would be for you to keep reading, since there’s going to be plenty more of that to come over the following chapters, many of which we’ve already written, and right to the very end, which we haven’t written yet. We just thought we’d warn you to give you a more informed decision, and to cut off any ‘well that really turned me off!’ complaints, because… well, you were warned. Anyway, it’s entirely up to you, of course!
Also, I just thought I’d give you a bit of an insight into the reasons behind us writing this story. We wanted to write something that really appealed to the both of us, something that we would really enjoy writing and exploring, and that’s very much what we came up with. We love the story and we each love both of the characters – so much so that it’ll be a bit of a wrench when we have to leave them behind. We decided to upload it as well since maybe others might also enjoy reading it, but it’s first and foremost for us two. But we’re both firm believers in writing to appeal to ourselves first anyway, which we feel every writer should do!
