>>134653Same, that and AO3. To be honest I don’t know where else to find erotic literature, other than traditional romance novels, I guess. But typical romance novels always feel like an old lady thing to me.
The benefit of AO3 is that I already like the characters, but the downside is the massive variance in terms of quality. Some of the stuff on there reads like it was written by tweens (and probably was)
No. 134661
trashy but my go to for erotica is x reader fic on tumblr (not fandom related tho) because it’s easier to find stuff tailored to my retarded kinks there. the occasional awful writing makes me dry up and question my life choices, and half of it is written by genderspecials, but sometimes? sometimes it’s fucking hot. it helps that i like 2nd person writing in general.
i wish there were more short fics that are really out there, with you know, monsters, tentacles, orgies and other coomer shit but still sensual and consensual.

I can give a specific rec. A few of you may know the 80s fantasy movie Legend where Tim Curry plays a giant buff devil and there's this scene where Mia Sara is tempted to become his dark queen and it was basically my weird childhood sexual awakening (and probably why I still have a monster/demon fetish).
On AO3 this lady writes great Lily x Darkness smut that captures the evolution of their relationship had it progressed, how Lily reckons with being "evil," how Darkness has allowed himself to love, and some actually interesting lore building (how darkness incarnate could reproduce, how they draw power from the world). The sex is wonderfully frequent and yet not repetitive, the writing is really sensual, emotional and hot, not at all generic scrote "he banged her pussy hard and she screamed oh baby." Having watched the movie is a plus but if you've never seen it the general premise is "innocent girl falls for the devil" and that's really all you need to know. Check her stuff out here:
https://archiveofourown.org/users/MahnaMahna/pseuds/MahnaMahna/works?fandom_id=16616Grabbing a couple sections from one of her shorter pieces, Shadow Dance, based on the iconic seduction scene:
Once he had thought to cage her, snare her, keep her by force and feed on her fear as he indulged his impulses, make sport of drawing her out despite herself. How grateful he is that his father had chided him as a fool in that moment, had tempered his instinctively violent nature, for he had been hasty and foolish indeed. Fear, delicious as it is, can only be kept alive so long, and to watch her in her abandon is a pleasure most glorious of which he might have deprived himself[…]
She dances towards his arms, as she ever does, seeks his embrace as surely as the moon rises. He is pleased by her willingness, savors how she is drawn to him, how she craves his skin in return. It is sweet to have her so wanting of his love, of his lust, to feel her tender kisses across his body one moment and the vicious bite of her nails the next as she clings to him, as she refuses to let him go. How fierce she is in her passion for him, how satisfying it is to satisfy her need[…]
His queen is powerful, he thinks as she runs her fingertips over the skin of his abdomen, scrapes his belly with long nails as the taught muscles quiver. She nuzzles her face against his aching sex through his clothing, leaving a kiss just below the head and he groans with a slight spasm against her lips. He has been hard and ready for her since this performance began and now her cheek through the black silk and her hands crawling up his chest are a relief but not nearly enough. No. 134714

>>134659I think the first thing I read was slashfic for bands I was into as a young teenager. I guess I told myself I was turned on by the idea of these two guys banging but in reality I was definitely self-inserting as whoever was doing the 'taking'. I ended up writing some slash fic myself, I cringe to think of what I wrote as a 14 year old who knew nothing about men.

I think when you mention erotica to people this is what they think of. either that or 50 shades of grey. 50 shades got people so riled up and excited and it's shit. is that really the best thing out there for women? why there aren't more well known writers out there creating actually good erotica for women, anyone have any theories?
No. 134741
>>134718Though I’m mainly a fujoshit, I think it’s because women like sharing their content with eachother for free? Dunno, all the art and fic I enjoy is, though I support the websites and artists with donations or ko-fi when viable. Maybe there’s not a big market for it because of that?
Then again the BL and josei industry is the biggest female-only erotica industry I’m aware of…so maybe there is a market for it

>>134659The first erotic book i read was 11 minutes by Paulo Coelho (i didn't know it was porn). His writing is objectively shit, but I have to thank him because he taught 11 year old me that women masturbate and how to do it.
The first erotica i read because i searched for it was Anais Nin's short stories. They are explicit and a bit deviant (incest, prostitution, rape, pedo iirc). A bit dry and boring imo, but that's what you get in smut focused short stories.
At the time I also read 80(?) days of sodom by Sade, and while it blew my mind at 13 with how explicit and deparved it was, it was also really fucking boring and repetitive.
Seriously, who reads the 1st chapter reads the entire book.

>>134942That's a very strange take to have on Justine. I've never heard of this. Maybe she interprets Justine being unwilling to turn away from God despite what every man tells her as feminine strength?
Or maybe she is confused with Juliette. This is the literal sister novel to Justine. Juliette is the older sister who parts with Justine at the beginning of the book because she wishes to pursue a life of prostitute and "libertinism" (as de Sade calls it) and winds up being very successful breaking the norm for women.
But she was also a murderer which isn't very feminist

>>134939I believe I read most of 'Philosophy in the Bedroom'. Kind of hysterical in that it's a
play, so presumably in his mind there would be actors tossing off these lines about liberty and free will while screwing each other. Not very grotesque or shocking compared to some of his other stuff, and mercifully very little scat.
>>134943If you've read "Justine", I only got through the beginning of it, but one thing always baffled me…when it describes Juliette's prostitution career early on, the story hints that she undergoes several "repairs" that allow her virginity to be resold dozens of times. Am I misreading this or did they have some sort of primitive hymen-repair-surgery back in this era?

>>134931I'd like to read this, plz share it.
On the topic of vintage erotica, I've read some interesting ones and I'd be curious to hear if anyone wants to share stuff they've read.
"Teleny, or The Reverse of the Medal" (1893) was written anonymously by several people, and at least one of the contributors was supposedly Oscar Wilde. It's marketed as this stirring gay romance/tragedy but there's still an abundance of hetero sex in it too. Quite explicit, especially for the time period; the long overheated descriptions of genitalia always make me lol.
"Songs of Bilitis" (1894) and "Aphrodite: Ancient Manners" (1896) by Pierre Louÿs. Nobody writes smut quite like the French. The first is a poetry collection that is mostly lesbian; the second is a novel about a courtesan in ancient Alexandria who lures an infatuated young man to commit crimes in order to sleep with her.
"The Venus in Furs" (1870) by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. We get the word "masochism" from this guy's name. Basically a semi-autobiographical story about a guy who badgers his unwilling girlfriend into what modern readers will recognize as a D/s relationship, with himself as the submissive. Dude then has the nerve to feel betrayed when his gf runs off with someone else. Kind of a hilarious NTR scene at the end though, because
the girlfriend has fallen in love with this dominant crossdressing twink who then proceeds to tie and whip the protagonist while said gf watches, and our protagonist hates this but totally gets off on it too.
No. 134981
>>134950Not to spoil Justine, but they half answer this near the end of the book. There is a scene where 4 men force Justine to perform in an orgy with the promise that one of them, a lawyer, will defend her from a death sentence. There is a guy in the orgy who only likes young virgins. Justine has been "had" too many times for this guys liking so he has her genitals crudely sewn up so he can retake her virginity
(which he actually does near the beginning of the book. She saves his life and he lures her into the woods and rapes her)
So I imagine that the procedure done to Juliette is somewhat similar. I have considered this as well at times. I have no doubt that whatever the procedure is, it will be described in unnecessary detail when I eventually read Juliette

>>134943I somehow forgot Angela Carter wrote an entire book in defence of Sade's work.
>The Sadeian Woman and the Ideology of Pornography is a 1978 non-fiction book by Angela Carter. The book is a feminist re-appraisal of the work of the Marquis de Sade, a work later criticized by the radical feminist theorist Andrea Dworkin in her 1981 book Pornography: Men Possessing Women. Unlike Dworkin, Carter sees de Sade as being the first writer to see women as more than mere breeding machines, as more than just their biology and, as such, finds him liberating.I feel like I would rather side with Dworkin on this, even though I love Carter's work.
No. 135056
>>135040This is a tricky one. While Sade really did seem to see women as capable of being equally successful and powerful to men on their own two feet, the only way he has ever really shown this is by depicting women as similarly depraved and murderous to men. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I've never read a book from his area describe women who enjoy sex or women who are sex workers in any positive light. Being a "libertine" as Sade calls it is his own version of a positive light.
Its tricky. This would make for a very fun debate topic, wouldn't it?

What would you like in your erotica? Make up anything you'd like!
I would like to read an erotic novel about femdom that doesn't have scrote fetishes that I don't enjoy like cuckolding. (Idk that has always felt like such a scrote thing, it seems to be all about the guy most of the time. If done well I think I might enjoy it but most of the time, no.)
I was kind of disappointed when I bought an erotic novel by Molly Sands (An Obedient Husband) and it started out with something about going to see her lover and her husband staying home and it just didn't click. The covers on her books are beautiful and classy but I just can't with cuckolding, I don't like it. If anyone has read her books feel welcome to tell me what they're like since I just couldn't. I'd like to give the book another try sometime.
Anyway I've been kind of toying with the idea of writing someday an erotic femdom novel myself for women so I'm interested in hearing what others would like to see in their erotica.
What attracted me to the Sands novel was the husband theme. I'd like to see a long-term relationship with kinky fun. Idk if there are any of those, can anyone recommend me anything?

>>134502ita, here's some shit I wrote because i'm a desperate bitch.
Its JLU older Terry McGinnis x my oc. I pretty much just wrote it for my own amusement so don't expect any sophisticated writing/grammar
“So naughty, Mr. McGinnis~”
Amon couldn't help but hum despite being the one to press him into the cold metal wall.
Maybe they both had been drinking too much but nothing seemed more appropriate than now to have some fun.
“Such a pervert.” She whispered as if she wasn’t the one that led them outside and to the back of the bar.
Right now he just seemed so kissable—And especially touchable.
“You have a lot to say for someone trying to take my pants off.” Terry chuckled as he allowed her to kiss whatever she could of him.
“But you're the one letting me do it~” She said between smearing kisses against his shoulder. All while continuing her naughty display of dishonesty.
“You're such a perv—o-oh!” He was finally cut off by her hand slipping down his pants. He swore she must've wanted to mock him more by using her leg to spread his just enough for her to access him better.
“I’m a perv?” Amon couldn’t help but sound pleased as she eagerly stroked him through his boxers. “But you're the one hard~” she softly tempted him as she enjoyed the way he felt against her. Especially when he allowed her to use his thigh as something more than a seat.
Maybe she really couldn't help it.
All she could think was how hot he seemed as he tried his best to hold his voice in.
And as much as she wanted to do inappropriate things between the two of them— someone might see. Especially when that particular someone could be the police.
Moreover, she wasn’t sure if Terry’s mostly good reputation could withstand her continual encouragement of delinquency.
Thankfully the aching between her legs made it abundantly clear what had to be done.I'll post more of it if Aa lot of you like it.

I need recommendations for dark/'problematic' erotica. Whether it involves morally corrupt characters, toxic behavior (from the female or male side), or wholesome characters with a dark plot. Why? Because I'm a degen.
