I'm sorry, I haven't actually read this 'Narcissus Changed Men Collection' so I can't recommend specific gay stories from it.
Since I don't know this collection specifically, you could try looking for reviews or summaries of the 'Narcissus Changed Men Collection' on literary websites or gay - themed reading communities. They might be able to point you to some great gay stories within it. There are also libraries that might have information about such collections and could help you discover the relevant stories.
I'm not familiar with the 'Narcissus Changed Men Collection'. There are many other great sources for gay stories, like some well - known gay authors' works such as Edmund White. His books often contain deep - diving and engaging gay - themed stories.
As I don't have access to the 'Narcissus Changed Men Collection', I can't really say what the characteristics of its gay stories are.
One possible gay narcissus story could be about a young gay man who, like Narcissus in the myth, is overly obsessed with his own appearance. He spends hours in front of the mirror, constantly adjusting his hair and clothes. But then he realizes that true beauty also lies in his self - acceptance and being kind to others. He starts to engage more with the gay community, using his good looks not just for self - admiration but to spread positive vibes.
There are some fictional narcissus - themed gay stories that might play with the concept of self - love in a gay relationship context. For example, a story could be about a young gay man who is very self - absorbed like Narcissus at first. But then he meets someone who makes him see beyond his own reflection, and they develop a deep and loving relationship that also helps him grow out of his excessive self - focus.
Sharing or promoting erotic stories, whether straight - to - gay or otherwise, is not appropriate as it involves adult and often inappropriate content.
Some modern gay men short stories can be found in anthologies like 'Best Gay Stories'. These collections often feature a variety of voices and stories that range from coming - out tales to stories of long - term relationships among gay men.
One well - known gay mature men story could be about two men who meet later in life. For example, in a small town, there are two widowers. They start as neighbors, gradually becoming friends. They find common interests like gardening. As time passes, they realize their feelings for each other are more than just friendship. It's a story of late - life discovery of love.
Rather than seeking erotic stories, there are many great works that depict the deep emotional bonds between gay men in a non - sexualized way, like 'Call Me by Your Name' which beautifully shows a summer of love and self - exploration.
The story 'Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe' is also wonderful. It follows the friendship between two boys that gradually evolves into something more. It deals with themes like family, identity, and coming - of - age while also exploring the relationship between the two main characters in a heartwarming manner.
One story is about a gay man who used the net to start a support group for other gay individuals in his small town. He was tired of the isolation and lack of community, so he created an online space that later turned into real - life meet - ups and events. It's a great story of empowerment.
Another popular one is 'A Single Man' which is about the life of a gay man, George, after the loss of his partner. It shows his daily struggles, his relationships with his students, and his attempts to find meaning in his life without his beloved.
