Does anyone remember this DOS “sex game”

Here comes a bizarre request.
Way back in the BBS dialup days, before you had actual “internet service”, my then-14-yr-old self stumbled into this all-text DOS program.
The way I remember it, it would ask you a series of questions (male or female? Is partner male or female? Are you a teenager or grown up? What’s your name? Etc). Then it would spit out one of a couple dozen pre-written “Penthouse-esque” stories you could page through, with some of the details modified slightly based on your answers.
The story setups were super tropey — there was a “guy at beach using binoculars locks eyes with a woman also using binoculars”, a “boy mowing the lawn gets invited in for lemonade”, a “curious teen experiments with his male friend”, etc etc.
I’m mostly looking for anybody that can confirm this thing actually existed, maybe a name or a wiki article describing it. I’ve tried a couple times to do a raw google search and have always drawn a blank.

A collextion of short stories, positions, and sexual activities were on offer after answering the questions.
