JenC Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I love it when we're all one big porn watching/reading happy family! As long as it's good Unfortunately this thread isn't about good porn, it's about 50 Shades of Grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffragette1 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Erotica is porn. Theres no difference The only difference as far as I'm concerned is that one leaves more to the imagination than the other. Also, of it were marketed as porn rather than erotica, fewer women would buy it. It's the female equivalent of the Ladyshave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Shaz says, everyone seems up be getting their (insert adjective)* knickers in a twist over a bit of rope and a riding crop. Bizarre! *want to prevent my post from being removed, but you know what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffragette1 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Could not agree more. The people who are salivating over it seriously need to go read some decent erotica. This is like the literary version of those B movie softcore pornos you can watch for free on 'Movies For Men'. A some real filthy sex too, instead of the Mills and Boon cliched type tripe that this pair are getting up to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then she's reviewing the next one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffragette1 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I'm awaiting in anticipation for the final part of the review; one of the funniest things I've read in ages. And then she's reviewing the next one Agreed, me too! Like her, there were several times when I threw the book down in disgust. I persevered in the vain hope that the sex scenes would improve in descriptive quality and filth. I cannot see what is remotely erotic about a tedious and protracted negotiation over a contract detailing every sex act that is permissible and those which are off limits, which were very disappointing. Break the contract, I was screaming! However, unlike the blogger's assertion, I have read both 50 Shades of Tedium and Tess. I am reminded of the stir that the latter caused when Angel Clare had the audacity to carry Tess over the stream, in the original instalment which had to be rewritten, enter a wheelbarrow to convey Tess instead. On a serious note, I suspect that were Mr Stalker Grey a bank teller or someone with a regular job, this 'lusty' tale would not hold as much as appeal as it does.

Fibutton Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Actually, I think it depends on how kinky the woman is and the filthier the woman, the less impressed she is by it, in my experience. The first book distinctly lacks the wow factor, in my view. It's pretty vanilla and tame. Ooooh you naughty girl you! Vanilla is a very boring taste, both In my opinion and experience.
