The human connection I think is what ...Hi Lisabet!<br /><br />The human connection I think is what erotica has to offer. I think its at the heart of any story of any genre. I suppose that's why writer's are often lonely individuals.<br /><br />Thank you for your kind comments on the orgasm scene in "Loves etc". I recall running that by you several times and you helped me get it right, and I always thought it would be the one part of the story I would have to get right. It was at least partly a satire on men. But also that was such a great opportunity for me, voyeuristic by nature, to have a reason to ask women about their orgasms. Isn't writing great?<br /><br />GarceGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-17331196599077800432011-09-08T05:46:36.616-04:002011-09-08T05:46:36.616-04:00Wow,happy husband to have a woman who has three ki...Wow,happy husband to have a woman who has three kinds of orgasms! I've always thought that women were far more erotic than men. Their emotional range, their range of sensation and sensual curiosity are far beyond men. Lisabet once said to me that she thinks sex is much harder for men than for women, and I think this is true too. Men have to perform relative to women, which gives women a lot of freedom in how they receive. But it would also make sense to me that women would evolve to enjoy sex more, because they need much more motivation to have sex than men do. Women risk everything, even their lives when they get pregnancy. Up until about 100 years ago getting pregnant after 30 was almost a death sentence. Its right they should enjoy it more when they literally "have more skin in the game."<br /><br />GarceGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-68673433506734990752011-09-08T00:51:23.338-04:002011-09-08T00:51:23.338-04:00"For a lot of us guys the ideal woman would b..."For a lot of us guys the ideal woman would be a wildcat in bed and after you come, she’d turn into a pizza." <br /><br />This is a hilarious observation, but I'm not sure that it's true. In your story THE DOLL, you explore the loneliness that comes from not having any human connection with your partner.<br /><br />Just for the record, I think you did a fabulous job describing female sexual experience in "Love's Tender..." - better than I can do, and I'm a woman.<br /><br />And for anyone who hasn't read the story - it's not only sexy, it's hilarious.Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-10691066818073667652011-09-07T12:28:22.312-04:002011-09-07T12:28:22.312-04:00I've written short stories, once of which was ...I've written short stories, once of which was published last year, about what it must feel like to be a man during sex. I've talked with many men over the years, and now reading your explanation, I see that what I've been imagining is pretty accurate.<br /><br />But as for what women feel, I think there is a whole lot more variation than the male experience. It took me years to realize that most women don't think about or enjoy sex as much as I do. I have identified at least 3 different kinds of orgasms, and I love all kinds, especially when they are in any combination. Some are the build-up and release kind, some are so quick it only takes a minute or so and they get everything "primed" for the next ones. And some take a long time to achieve, but can go on and on, like being on a roller-coaster that has peaks and valleys, but it is all fun.<br />In Greek mythology, there was a character who had been both male and female (I can't think of the name), and he angered Zeus because when asked by Hera, "Who enjoys sex more, males or females?", he answered, "Females, of course." I can identify with that!Fiona McGierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13495707848048468428noreply@blogger.com
