Sex scene countdown

[resonant]

I wondered how many sex scenes I'd written. (Don't ask me why I wondered this; wondering has no "why.") Anyhow, I went and counted, and as best I can tell I've written:

48 m/m sex scenes

and

1 m/f sex scene.

This includes scenes in stories (including a couple that got R ratings because they were tagless and thus no body parts were mentioned; if there were orgasms involved, I counted them as sex scenes), and also scenes that got cut from stories and published as "bonus" scenes linked off the story notes. If you count the three from the never-to-be-finished "Six Weeks," which haven't actually been published anywhere, then it takes the total up to 51.

Those scenes come out of 36 published stories plus Transfigurations, which hasn't been published yet. I counted the Jim/Scott scene from Nuance, but not the Jim/Blair one, because liviapenn wrote that one. And I counted the scene in Origin even though it was written in collaboration with kassrachel, so maybe I ought to say fifty and a half.

Now I'm curious how that compares to other writers' work. How many sex scenes have you written? How do they break down as far as gender? What's your story-to-sex-scene ratio?

All of my stories involve sex scenes, pretty much, except for two vignettes: the Daria one I wrote for the Inappropriate Elf Challenge, and my Iron Chef Shack. I'm pretty sure all the rest have sex in 'em, and it's all m/m.

So that's 2 Sentinel shacks, 38 Sentinel stories (at least one of which has multiple sex scenes in it :-), and 4 Sentinel sonnets or sonnet sequences with sex in 'em. Plus 6 due South stories, one HP story with a pair of sex scenes in it, and one piece of 24 slash, also with sex. That's...um...53 sex scenes, I guess, give or take a few.

Not bad for three and a half years' work, eh? :-)
