Fans of Cosmo know that we take our steamy stories exxxtremely seriously. Back in the day, we published Red Hot Reads in every issue of the mag—fictional tales of hookups so hot, there’s no way you weren’t hiding behind the pages so you could blush in peace at the doctor’s office.
Now, we have Confessay, a weekly(ish) essay series in which intrepid horny people from all over the world share the dirtiest details of their latest sex-ventures. These stories are all real and all, like, brow-wipingly hot.
Cosmopolitan
Allow us to give you a lil overview. There’s the one about a writer hooking up with her ex’s best friend...mere hours after the breakup. Another essay goes inside an illicit-on-every-level workplace affair, where the writer finds out what, exactly, makes a man a Daddy. There are also plenty of threesomes, some foot stuff, and, of course, an all-night fuckfest for good measure.
So yeah, Confessays can get pretty raunchy. See also: the one where a certain brave soul admits to having sex with her boyfriend in restaurant restrooms…all the damn time. Oh, and can’t forget that time one writer jerked off her BFF’s husband to help him collect a sperm sample and found out she has a medical kink. (We seriously can’t make this stuff up.)
To read every new installment of Confessay—reminder, a new story comes out every other week—you need to become a member of Cosmo Unlocked. Promise you won’t regret it.
Only the horniest, most lip-biting-inducing, give-you-tingles-down-there stories make it into the Confessay collection.
