What do you thing? Marketing-Gag?
No. One of the questions I got was: When do the two protagonists of the story have sex?
Calm down. Both protagonists of the novel will have sex.
But: having sex with an alien might be a bit complicated :-).
Seriously: there are the so-called Alien Abductions. People report a physical contact with aliens.
(There are even quite a few books written about these abductions, some of them very scary. I later put the links to these books and perhaps videos in a separate article, so that you can inform yourself if you wish.)
Alien Abduction
Back to the subject. In a large number of cases it is reported that “sexual interactions” took place, primarily egg or sperm collection, then women reported that a fertilised egg was implanted in them, the fetus was removed during a later abduction and also occasionally about real sex, i.e. sexual intercourse with aliens. According to the reports, it was almost “galactic” :-).
Apparently, the kidnapping victims can only remember these kidnappings in detail under hypnosis. They suffer, and this is not recognized by science(?), from a kind of PTSD. Scientific research suggests that these kidnappings are nonsense and are based on sexual desires. Other theories suggest that sleep paralysis is the primary basis of a state in which such fantasies manifest themselves.
Paralysis itself experienced…
I experienced such a paralysis several times as a teenager, once also as an adult. Was not beautiful. But I didn’t have fantasies, I just wanted to move again and concentrated on the fact that I could move at least a finger or a toe, and then it was also over. Very unpleasant experience.
I can well imagine that for some people this paralysis has such an effect that dreams and fantasies become fixed in this phase. According to scientific research, it is the cause of kidnapping fantasies…
I’ll just leave it like that.
But what does this have to do with the story of the EBE21?
Nothing. But as the author of this story, however, I would like to find out whether the events I write down provide an opportunity for the two protagonists; whether there is a compelling prerequisite for sex from the story itself.
In other words: I don’t write a sex scene if it doesn’t result from the story.
But it looks like that’s exactly what happens. So the intimate contact of the two protagonists is not a marketing trick.
