I'm with you on this. While I enjoy Arnold movies for the action, his one-liner quips, and the good-guys-always-win aspect, I get grossed out when the camera lingers on his body. I think body-builders, both male and female, are grotesque! Luckily I didn't fall in love with one.

This was wild, a really hilarious made-up phobia.

I even tried to look up "Myonphobia" before catching onto the sound of it. <br /><br />Sometimes I wish ERWA could lift some of it's taboos, even though I understand why they're in place. I think human beings have a streak in them that, in fantasy at least, goes beyond mating with only our own kind. Last night I saw Angelina Jolie as "Malificent" kicking ass in black leather, huge hooked wings, creepy eyes and goat like horns and thought "Hell yeah. I'd do her."<br /><br />GarceGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-37447575255625539542014-08-22T08:58:20.752-04:002014-08-22T08:58:20.752-04:00Thanks, Jeremy,

...Hey, I can see the appeal of Bigfoot, actually. <br /><br />I really do hate those overinflated, waxed male torsos so popular on romance covers. Although I'm not sure I'd actually run away screaming as Laurel does.<br /><br />And speaking of mamma-to-mammal (or not), you should check out Nobilis Reed's great blog about tentacle sex on Emily Byrne's blog last week.

I just hope all my fellow romance authors don't come after me with knives! <br /><br />The thing about romance is that it's really easy to make fun of it. On the other hand, in this story I wanted to keep the reader wondering just how serious (or not) I was.Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-3391893962803959912014-08-18T23:28:14.380-04:002014-08-18T23:28:14.380-04:00Parody?

It's also my impression that in Monster Sex stories there's no such thing as over-the-top. This may be a bit tame, though, with only mammal-to-mammal sex.
