Another lesbian story I wrote, 'April Leads Julie Astray' set ....
Ha, hello, I'm a neuroscientist! Well, at least my first post-grad degree was neuroscience. Think I've forgotten more than I ever knew.
Yes its possible. I think that a fair number of readers aren't necessarily looking for it. Some will appreciate it when they find it and others will click away and look elsewhere for a quick wank.
Also, erotica and comedy use very different skillsets. Often what is necessary to one can undermine the other. Pulling off both requires balance and restraint.
ALSO;
-judging writing in general is often subjective. What is good writing to one person is bad to another.
-judging erotica is very subjective. Sex is often a mix of many kinks and themes (male on female, redhead, blowjob, doggystyle, anal, facial), and any one of those elements might turn off a reader to the point that they click away.
-judging comedy is extremely subjective. Peoples senses of humor are as widely varied as their sexual kinks.
Trying to thread any two of these needles is hard enough, but doing all three is expert-level difficulty.

That being said, try. Don't let a high bar scare you.
I think comedy can exist with sex, but I don't think comedy and erotica are a good mix, no. I think humor takes the erotic out of a situation, if only for that moment.
One had BETTER be able to find their absurd sexual activities funny.
Missed on a cool wordplay thing there since 'May' is also a female name. Or at least Mae.
What's the point of trying? Satire, in the case of the three I've linked above.I see that your first degree was not in logic...
Well, for sure, the combination of the two is going to be a tough ask to the extent, I would imagine, of being of doubtful value. What, I wonder, is actually the point of trying?
At best, wouldn't you have achieved a triumphant juxtaposition of things which are mutually distracting?
Scratching my head...
The April Fools story I almost cooked would have been One Night In April, with her triplet sisters May and June snuck in for fun, vastly confusing and exhausting the studly victim (not their brothers, the twins Julius and Augie).I actually did think of calling her May or June, but these names did not suit the character, where Julie did, and it is similar to July.

But you have raised a question, you have a range of consistent answers (use a light touch, be careful with the elements, not every funny bone is the same), yet you then dismiss those who try it as of doubtful value and what's the point, and at best, something distracting. I suppose you did use the word, 'triumphant,' so I'll claim that one.
Just for the record, my little triumvirate are 4.71, 4.66, and 4.68, so yes, it can be done: folk commented on the cleverness, they laughed - and a smile is always good, don't you think? I seriously doubt, however, that there was much arousal, despite a spicy image or two. But then, the category is Humor and Satire, so I wouldn't expect a raging hard-on or a gush of excitement.
I love cherry pie.
I adore pickled gherkins.
