Very erotic, Mer. I'm not sure if it was your intent, but I like the way you flipped the term "sex object," which for years some women have found obectionable: i.e., "I'm more than a sex object."

One the one hand, it was erotic; on the other, it made me think about gender differences. Men are usually the pursuers, not the objects, of desire.

"Nay" felt outdated. I think "No, invited!" Would have better emphasized who's really in charge here.
