It could be Harvey Keitel's fingertips brushing against the back of Holly Hunter's neck in "The Piano." It could be all those thunderstorms in Wuthering Heights, the full frontal of Ewan McGregor as Iggy Pop in "Velvet Goldmine." It could Pamela Anderson in "Baywatch" or "Barb Wire." Halle Berry in "Catwoman." You name it. What turned you on?

So feel free to post an image or suggest an inocuous (i.e. not yr usual fantasy fare) object that other contributors can run wild with. Take 5-10 minutes to write a sexy or erotically charged story featuring the object.
