#2 The majority of my client base were professionally successful men who compulsively scratched the itch for getting peed on, spanked, sodomized, or diapered. It was a routine they had been compulsively scratching for many years.

#3 I took Steve down the opulent passageway to the magnetically locked chamber leading to the elevator. I’ll see you on Friday, I said. Thank you, Justine. Steve smiled warmly and adjusted his tie.

#4 I had moved to New York to attend The New School, and I was thriving. I had struggled the first nine months, but after that, my life began to speed up.
