Boys in distress - did style

[Susano]

I've been all over, all through asstr.org looking, and never found anything but damsels in distress. Where is the gender equality? Nary a single boy in distress story--whether he's being saved from a dragon by a curvaceous yet muscular knight, untied from the railroad tracks by a brave cowgirl, or even rescued from kidnappers by a masked heroine--they simply aren't to be found. It'd be especially cool if they rode off into the sunset together, or lived happily ever after, or something... But, anyway.

If anyone knows of existing stories or archives such as those, please let me know.

Oooh I like your ideas! A hot hunk in distress is a very sexy idea! Kinda like maybe he's trying to save the princess from the dragon but gets caught by the dragon and therefore the princess will save him and they will fall in love? I think I might be able to write one like that

Hey, thanks for the vote of confidence It does seem like a genre with a lot of unrealized potential, to me. Lemme know if you do end up writing one!

I'm having images of Shrek flash through my head right now.

I love the idea of the female being the hero.

However falling in love for the guy might come with some reluctance if he is use to being a dominating partner in relationships.
