You're a male student just gone to university, and you're not fitting in very well. Non of the other students talk to you and ignore you in the bar. You’re finding your Applied Mathematics course bewildering. Then you meet Matilda, a big black girl at university, who is looking to meet someone she can dominate.

You’ve been married to Felicity for five years. You both wanted lots of children, but her career in medical research quickly took off and yours nose-dived. You don’t earn enough to support the two of you whilst she earns ten times that. So, children have been postponed and we’re both aware that her biological calendar is ticking. But one evening, she returns from work with a proposal.

Rosa and I had been dating for a couple of months, and had become really close, her being black and me white if anything making us even closer. I was thinking about suggesting we live together, but there was one issue holding me back. We had plenty of intimate moments together but we had never consummated our relationship. Rosa was not on the pill for medical reasons and was terrified of becoming pregnant. She’d been married before and had very quickly twice conceived, to her West Indian husband’s delight. Both pregnancies had been very painful and difficult, both ending in miscarriages and she was terrified of repeating that. At the same time, she was aware her biological clock was ticking and desperately wanted children. It was a dilemma I couldn’t talk her out of.

You’re living rough on the streets having lost everything within just a few weeks: your job, car, girlfriend and flat. A flash car stops by you and an older but attractive woman gets out.

Jemma is a voluptuous and helpful black woman, who runs a local shop , who you recognise after knocking on her door to deliver a parcel.

This is your wife of 20 years. Your children are at university and life has become routine. Recently, Linda has lacked self confidence in her own abilities.

You're visiting a customer's office and are about to leave when you notice an attractive woman has been looking at you with interest. You say, Hi;' to her as you walk near her desk and she responds with a smile.

You, Paul, and your wife,Candy, have left it a little late to have children mainly because of Candy's high powered and very high paid job. If she has to give up because of pregnancy issues, you will lose most of your joint income. Candy starts fertility treatments and Candy falls pregnant. She persuades you to have some pioneer surgery to have a womb implant and transfer the baby to you.

Matilda is a tall black English woman of Afro-Caribbean heritage. She took up ballroom dancing at university. She very much enjoys it and, after leaving university, has recently joined a local ballroom dance club where most members are not only considerably older than her but have very traditional views about dancing, unlike the more enlightened and younger dancers at university. In particular, she is frustrated that men always take the lead and she believes that she could do it so much better. It doesn’t help that she is 5’ 11” tall, far taller than most men she dances with, often making them looking ridiculously short.

It’s the first week at university and you’re a (male) fresher. You’d noticed the pretty girl several times before but never had the chance to speak with her. Today, she’s on her own in the common room and, as you carry your coffee towards her table, she looks at you with increasing welcome and admiration. She gives you a big smile, and says:
